Glossary Entry 7

Widget
Web Widget is a portable chunk of code that can be installed and executed within any separate HTML-based web page by an end user without requiring additional compilation. They are akin to plugins or extensions in desktop applications. Other terms used to describe a Web Widget include Gadget, Badge, Module, Capsule, Snippet, Mini and Flake. They are popular in blogs. Jackie, I don't know where you saw this in MT, so you might have more questions about it, as I find this definition rather vague.
